Saying No To 14

The NFL is trying to make the point after attempt more challenging for teams. A missed kick is a rare occasion.

The Pro Bowl tried something new when they placed the ball on the 25 yard line and made it a 35 yard kick. They also narrowed the goal post width from 18 to 14 feet.

I have no issue with the change in distance, but the goal posts should be kept at their current width. I believe in tradition and the posts have been that wide forever.

Moving the ball back might encourage more teams to try for two points. That is always an exciting play.
